    1966 RENAULT 8 SEDAN Lot of (2) Authentic Vintage Ads ~ FREE SHIPPING!
    1966 Renault 8 Sedan lot of (2) original vintage advertisements.
    DESCRIPTION:
    The critics are panning us.
    The automotive experts blame us for not doing justice to our own product.
    Car and Driver Magazine said, “In spite of having the best economy sedan... in the U.S., Renault continues to lose ground.”
    Newspaper Enterprise Association reported, “Renault has never really gotten a proper share of the American market, and this is a shame... because they have one of the best cars in the world for the money.”
    Foreign Car Guide wrote, “They now have a car that is capable of outdoing the VW.”
    Our dealers, some 400 of them, feel exactly the same. “Great car” they say,“But nobody knows it!’
    Even Renault owners complain that we do not advertise enough! So, let us say a few words about the Renault 8.
    The Renault 8 is an economy car. It has an 1108cc
    engine. It can do over 35 miles per gallon (which for a Renault is not particularly remarkable).
    It has disc brakes at all four wheels, 4-wheel independent suspension, a 5-main bearing engine, a 4-speed fully synchromesh transmission, rack and pinion steering, a unique liquid cooling system that seldom needs attention, and many other advanced engineering features. (But shouldn’t modern automotive engineering be an ordinary thing? Is it anything to brag about?)
    We could carry on, but there is not enough space left on this page... Better go and see for yourself. Find out just how luxurious an economy car can be. Take a ride in the Renault 8, and see why one critic thinks it
    feels like a big American compact. Your local Renault dealer will help you make the discovery.
    Our customers are dissatisfied!
    They are annoyed with the arrogance and complacency some other manufacturers display. They accuse us of not doing justice to the car they are so proud to own. They think that having such a fine product, we should advertise it more aggressively.
    All right, we can try...

    What is really outstanding about the Renault 8, in addition to its exceptional performance and acceleration, is the outstanding comfort of its bucket seats. We found nothing we could compare them with. This, you will have to see for yourself. Then, maybe, you can tell us why Renault owners say our advertising lacks imagination.
